Two angles are complimentary. One of the angles is r. How do you express the other angle?
x + r = 90
x + r- r = 90 -r
x = 90-r
To express the measure of the other angle, we need to understand what it means for two angles to be complementary. Complementary angles are two angles that add up to 90 degrees. Therefore, the sum of the measures of the two angles is 90 degrees.
Let's denote the measure of the other angle as x. Since r is one of the angles and they are complementary, we can set up the following equation:
r + x = 90
To express the measure of the other angle in terms of r, we can rearrange the equation:
x = 90 - r
So, the expression for the measure of the other angle is 90 minus r.
